Subject: Royalties - for web radio (Attn: Bob)

Message Detail:
I understand this "Royalties" fee for web radio is still undecided. But, honestly, Bob, I believe web radio is just hanging itself. I see too many pre-compiled "shows", involving copyrighted music, being sold. I went searching for a radio ad that was aired frequently on WIBG, from Robert Halls (clothing store). That's about the extent of what I remember of WIBG. But I find some past DJ, selling these jingles. I even found one DJ from WVLT, doing the same, selling copyrighted music, JUST because it's a "show". If it were my decision to vote for the "Royalties" fee to be paid by web radio, from what I've seen, I'd vote "Yes", but I wouldn't end there. The person who was going to "air" what I collect frowned upon pre-compiled (on demand) shows, for this very same reason. It's like downloading music.

Take care.

Best,
John
